Looking for a good multicolor printer
I would look into the Snapmaker U1 or the Flashforge Creator 5 pro. The U1 has been out for a while and has a good community and good support. More Creator 5 reviews are trickling out now. Both of these machines are Tool Changers. This means that they can print multicolor with little to no waste, un

Looking for a good multicolor printer
In the below 1500 range, I would suggest the Snapmaker u1.Base printer is 900.The top is 150, and won't ship for 4-5 months. He can use a plastic tote in the meantime (we're all doing that).Hardened nozzles are super helpful. The base nozzles can't handle glow in the dark, wood infused, and so on as

INDX alternative
I’ve been looking into this a lot recently. I have a Core One with INDX on order, a Bambu H2D (pre known shenanigans), and a U1 as my main printers these days. I’m actually now most worried about my C1 going from my rocksteady reliable for abrasives and TPU to being less useful than my U1 with an IN

Asking for advice for a new printer
If your main focus is multi color you should go with a toolchanger like Snapmaker U1 or Flashforge Creator 5/pro. They are significantly faster with multi color/multi filament prints. They have less build volume though. Creator 5 pro also has better engineering filament capabilities. Bambu cloud isn

X2D + U1 or H2C...what is the best choice for everything?
Howdy fellow Engineer! I'm only 3 weeks into 3d printing. And my first printer out of the gates was the X2D. Hot Diggity, it's been a blast so far. My goal with the X2D is to make variety of functional prints using engineering materials and it's been working perfectly. Of course now there is the Sna

People who got the creator 5 how is it?
The Creator 5 printers are still very new, I don't think anyone has received their Creator 5 Pros yet. But I think a toolchanger like these or the snapmaker U1 are definitely the way to go if you want to reduce waste printing in multiple colors or if you want to print in multi-material or engineerin

The support provided in this ticket regarding my Bambu Lab P2S has been completely unacceptable.
Myself bought a Flashforge Creator 5 pro privately for having fun. Cost about the same. Bonus is I can make masking stuff for my coating company in nylon. If you as a company cant afford a better machine for prototype workshop, I feel sorry for you. You really need to add some to get a real machine.

Good Bambu Lab X2D alternatives?
Do you need multi-material, amd less waste printing color? If not, the Centauri Carbon 2 Combo is a reasonable choice for an enclosed comedy. If yes, and you want a heated enclosure, I don't think anything except a Flashforge Creator 5 Pro will be in that price range. If you can do without color or

Visual Chart for the upcoming 2026 Anniversary Sale
Honestly I'd expect that to be the new permanent price for the P2S at some point soon. At $800 it was dangerously close in price to both the X2D and the Flashforge Creator 5 Pro, both of which are significantly more capable. $800 for a single nozzle printer with no heated chamber at that size just i
